Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 16 - Swans v Freo Sat June 29th 1:45pm AEST (SCG)

[The King!]

Our best is very good, but you won't get it every week. We're still young and inconsistent. Particularly in the forward line. And now with Pearce and Cox out the backline could struggle to deliver week in week out. Draper for example was immense yesterday, but was dropped a couple weeks ago because of form.

Very true , any side on their day can win .

Freo should at least win 6 of their last 8 but who knows .

Do Freo go undefeated the rest of the year? Hawks in Tassie is tough but they look a fair shot

 

[The King!]

Being sincere sorry

Love the optimism !!!
We also have Bombers in Melbourne and GWS in Sydney, neither of those will be easy games but I reckon you’re spot on, Hawks in Tassie probably the biggest threat.
Although it’s more our style to win those and drop a game like next week’s Richmond at home though.
The joys of being a Dockets supporter - always living on the edge !

Most fans see their own fixture as more challenging .

I am nervous about the Saints and Roos next two. The idea that you are even worried about the Tigers next week is baffling to me as an outsider, you will win that easily.

The tassie one is just such a long trip for the Dockers , but GWS look rubbish too.

Oh well who knows, the Dockers ruckmen looked particularly great yesterday , that alone sets them up well.

didn't he do that bullshit bounce he does no reason on the first couple of steps? Not rewatching to check

Reason for that is to allow time for him to build up momentum. It's used as a tactic as Warner is that powerful through the legs that if he gets momentum up he's going to break most tackles or cause them to slip low where he's going to get a free for a trip. Also optically makes it less likely for the umpire to ping him for running too far as the mind records that he's had a bounce but not necessarily when. I agree it's risky, but not the worst tactic I've seen.

Yeah either way pretty sure he did it, but also burning the game tape, so not checking .
